We have created an entire Tips & Tricks page with linked videos on how we use each of these items. But we wanted a simple page to list our fav’s!

Favorite Prep Items:

We give a FREE basic disposable prep kit for beginner press on nail girlies, but we do have other recommendations for longer wear and better prep.

High Quality Cuticle Pusher:

This specific pusher is created at an angle that makes it hard for the pusher to slip and scratch your skin above the nail if you have thick and strong cuticles. Use this gently to push back the overgrown cuticle and skin above before buffing the nail.

PH Bonder/Dehydrator: removes oils

This product is used after cuticles are pushed & removed, nail plate is buffed, and cleansed with the alcohol wipe. If you want short term wear, do not use this item. It dries out your nail plate for extended wear due to no oils that cause lifting.
